The 16th Century Crisis was across Europe and that last link centers around the UK in the end in the English Civil War. It's a whole thing that led up to it.

Haha, that's certainly a curious interpretation of the crisis of the 16th century. You're referring to this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protestant_work_ethic

This series basically modernises a classic book on the subject that's about 100 years old on the topic if you want to know more: https://hellonearth.chapotraphouse.com/views/podcast/

It works for about half the people that try it from what I have read. I got lucky. I never had luck with anything else. Mine likely stems from mild hereditary ocd FWIW. It's one of those problems I never thought a pill would fix, let alone a supplement lol.

You'll want to look at the studies for dosages.

Haha, I take an amino acid to make me stop biting my nails. Works though, pretty wild.
